Polymorphisms in the Renin-Angiotensin System and eNOS Glu298Asp Genes Are Associated with Increased Risk for Essential Hypertension in a Mexican Population. J Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone Syst 2023; 2023:4944238. [PMID: 36845669 PMCID: PMC9957645 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4944238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Essential hypertension is the result of modifiable and genetic factors, and it is associated with increased risk for atherothrombosis. Some polymorphisms are associated with hypertensive disease. The objective was to analyze the association between eNOS Glu298Asp, MTHR C677T, AGT M235T, AGT T174M, and A1166C and ACE I/D polymorphisms with essential hypertension in the Mexican population. Materials and Methods In the present study, 224 patients with essential hypertension and 208 subjects without hypertension were included. The Glu298Asp, C677T, M235T, T174M, A1166C, and I/D polymorphisms were determined by the PCR-RFLP technique. Results We found statistical differences in age, gender, BMI, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and total cholesterol between control and cases. However, we found no significant differences in HbA1c and triglycerides between both groups. We observed statistical significant differences in the genotype distribution of Glu298Asp (P = 0.001), I/D (P = 0.02), and M235T (P = 0.004) polymorphisms between both groups. In contrast, there were no differences related to distribution of genotypes of MTHFR C677T (P = 0.12), M174T (P = 0.46), and A1166C (P = 0.85) between cases and control groups. Conclusions We identified that Glu298Asp, I/D, and M234T polymorphisms represented an increased risk for essential hypertension and those genetic variants could contribute to the presence of endothelial dysfunction and vasopressor effect, hyperplasia, and hypertrophy of smooth muscle cells, which had an impact for hypertension. In contrast, we found no association between C677C, M174T, and A1166C polymorphisms and hypertensive disease. We suggested that those genetic variants could be identified in individuals with high risk to avoid hypertension and thrombotic disease.

Abstract
Background The role of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) as a key player in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with hypertension remains controversial. The present case-control study systematically investigated the association between gene the correct variation type in the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene and type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with hypertension in the Han population from the Inner Mongolia region, China. Method Here, state which variants were analysis, including age, occupation, triglyceride, systolic, diastolic, sex, culture, marital status, smoking, alcohol, BMI (body mass index), SBP (systolic blood pressure), DBP (diastolic blood pressure), TG (triglyceride), TC (total cholesterol), HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol), LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol), FPG (fasting plasma glucose). Genomic DNA was extracted from samples from 202 type 2 diabetic patients with hypertension and 216 type 2 diabetic patients without hypertension. Results Non-conditional regression analysis showed that in comparison with the TT genotype, the presence of the CC genotype for the T573 site of the AT1R gene increased the risk for diabetes mellitus complicated with hypertension by 3.219-fold (OR = 3.219, 95% CI: 1.042–9.941, P = 0.042). The results from multivariate linear regression analysis suggested the rs5182 polymorphism in the AT1R gene to be associated with diastolic blood pressure (P = 0.032). No other associations were found between the incidence of disease and the correct variation type at other sites of the AT1R gene. Conclusions Our results suggest that the rs5182 polymorphism in the AT1R gene is associated with diabetes complicated by hypertension in the Han population of Inner Mongolia.

Abstract
AbstractBackgroundSince first reported having the association with essential hypertension, angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) A1166C was globally investigated worldwide. However, controversy was found. Furthermore, previous meta-analyses did not adequate to clarify the precise correlation due to some limitations. Therefore, we aimed to perform a meta-analysis concerning the association between AT1R A1166C single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the risk of essential hypertension with eliminating the limitations of previous studies.MethodsA meta-analysis was conducted from February to March 2019. Some information related to sample size of hypertension and control groups and genotype frequencies of hypertension and control groups were extracted from each study. Data were analyzed using fixed or random effect model to determine the overall correlation.ResultsA total of 45 papers consisting of 11911 cases and 1340 controls were enrolled for the study. Our overall analysis showed that C allele and AC genotype of AT1R A1166C was associated with 1.18-fold and 1.15-fold respectively increased risk of essential hypertension, while the decreased risk of essential hypertension was observed in A allele and AA genotype. In sub-group analysis, increased risk of essential hypertension was found in C allele, AC genotype, and CC genotype of both Asian population and PCR-RFLP sub-groups, while decreased risk was observed in A allele and AA genotype.ConclusionsOur meta-analysis reveals that AT1R A1166C remains a valuable SNP having an association with the risk of essential hypertension.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: There are reported associations between a polymorphism of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R/A1166C) gene and coronary artery disease (CAD), hypertension, and myocardial infarction in some populations. Objective: Investigate the association between A1166C polymorphism and CAD in an Iranian population. Methods: Four hundred and thirteen patients with suspected CAD were recruited. Based on coronary angiography, the patients were classified into CAD+ (n=315) and CAD- (n=98) groups defined as >50% and <50% stenosis of any major coronary artery, respectively. One hundred and thirty-five healthy subjects were also recruited as the control group. The AT1R polymorphism was assessed using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) based method. Results: A higher frequency of the AC and CC genotypes and lower frequency of the AA genotype was observed in both CAD+ and CAD- groups, compared with the control group (p <0.05). CAD+ and CAD- groups also had a higher frequency of the C allele than controls (p <0.01). There was no significant difference in genotype and allele frequencies between hypertensive and non-hypertensive patients (p > 0.05). In addition, the AT1R genotype frequencies did not differ significantly among different subgroups of CAD+ patients, based on the number of affected coronary vessels (p >0.05). Conclusion: The frequency AT1R/A1166C polymorphism was higher among patients with some degrees of coronary stenosis who are candidates of coronary angiography.

Abstract
Background The angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene is a prime candidate for polymorphisms that could contribute to hypertension. A polymorphism in the 3' untranslated region, leading to the transversion of adenine to cytosine at position 1166, has been the most-studied variant. However, the results have been inconsistent, and we therefore performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the association of this polymorphism with hypertension. Methods We conducted an extended a computer-based literature search of PubMed and Web of Knowledge up to November 30, 2015. The extracted data were analysed statistically, and pooled odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated to assess the strengths of associations using Review Manager software (version 5.2). Results After removing 5 studies that were not consistent with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, we finally collected 41 case-control studies involving 11,837 cases and 11,020 controls to evaluate the association between AT1R polymorphisms and hypertension. We found that the risk of hypertension was higher for allele C than for allele A under the codominant model, significantly higher for genotype CC + AC than for genotype AA under the dominant model, and significantly higher for genotype CC + AC in Caucasians. Conclusion This meta-analysis suggests that the AT1R 1166 CC + AC genotype consistently confers susceptibility to hypertension and that early preventive measures should be applied in clinical settings according to patient genotypes.

Abstract
Polymorphisms of ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) 1166A-C have been associated with many diseases, and distributions of their genotypes vary in different races and populations. The aim of this study was to investigate distributions of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and AT1R genotypes in Han and She populations in ZheJiang province. We determined ACE and AT1R genotypes in 189 Han and 163 She individuals. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. Analyses of ACE and AT 1R genotypes were performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). The frequencies of ACE genotypes and alleles among the Han sample (41.3%II, 41.3%ID, 17.5%DD; 61.9%I allele, 38.1%D allele) were similar to those among She individuals (39.9%II, 39.3%ID, 20.9%DD; 59.5%I allele, 40.5%D allele), with p=0.660; p=0.421. However, significant differences in the distributions of ACE polymorphism between men and women among She population were observed, with p=0.042, p=0.014. AT1R genotype and allele frequencies in the Han population were (88.4%AA, 11.1%AC, 0.5%CC) and (93.9%A allele, 6.1%C) allele respectively. In the She population they were (78.0%AA, 21.3%AC, 0.6%CC) and (89.0%A allele, 11.0%C allele). The significant differences were found between Han and She populations with p=0.031, p=0.018, and within subgroups of women, with p=0.010, p=0.021. There were no significant differences within subgroups of men (p=0.476, p=0.261). The genotype distributions or allele frequencies of ACE and AT1R were significantly different between the samples of the She and Han populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a serious health issue worldwide and essential hypertension, which includes 90-95% of the cases, is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Identification of these factors may help in control of this disease. The Insertion/Deletion (I/D) polymorphism in Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) gene and rs2106809 (C > T) polymorphism in Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) gene have been reported to be associated with essential hypertension in different populations. AIM To investigate the association of ACE I/D and ACE2 rs2106809 polymorphisms with essential hypertension in the population of Odisha, an eastern Indian state. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 246 hypertensives (159 males and 87 females) and 274 normotensives (158 males and 116 females) were enrolled in the study. Detailed anthropometric data, tobacco, alcohol and food habits were recorded and 2 ml of venous blood was collected for biochemical and genetic analysis. RESULTS The DD genotype of ACE and TT genotype of ACE2 were significantly high among female hypertensives, while T allele of ACE2 was linked to male hypertensives. In the male population, alcohol was also identified as a potential risk factor. CONCLUSION Among females, ACE I/D and ACE2 rs2106809 polymorphisms, while among males, ACE2 rs2106809 polymorphism and alcohol consumption are associated with essential hypertension in the study population.

Abstract
There is no agreement on the involvement of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene A(1166)C variant and essential hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene A(1166)C variants with essential hypertension and some related parameters in a sample of Jordanian hypertensive patients. DNA samples from 108 hypertensive individuals and 102 age- and gender-matched non-hypertensive controls of the Jordanian population were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism assay (PCR-RFLP) methods to determine the frequency of A(1166)C variants alleles. No statistically significant differences were found in the distribution of alleles and genotypes between hypertensive and non-hypertensive individuals, not even after gender segregation. The frequency of the variant allele (C(1166)) was significantly higher in the early-onset compared to the late-onset group of hypertensive males, in subjects with positive family history of hypertension, and in subjects with high waist circumference. In conclusion, the A(1166)C polymorphism is not associated with essential hypertension in Jordanian hypertensive individuals. However, it was associated with an early onset of hypertension in males, with positive family history of hypertension, and with high waist circumference irrespective of blood pressure status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The angiotensin II protein is a vasoconstrictor that exerts most of its influence through the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R). Inconsistent association between the A1166C polymorphism of the AT1R gene and hypertension has been reported among various populations but not among the peoples of Calabar and Uyo. This study was designed to determine the frequency of the A1166C polymorphism of the AT1R gene and its association with hypertension in a sample population of Calabar and Uyo. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A population-based case control design consisting of total of 1224 participants, 612 each of patients and controls were randomly recruited from hypertension clinics and the general population. Genotyping of the A1166C allele of the AT1R gene to identify variants was performed using polymerase chain reaction and restriction enzyme digestion. Multiple regressions were applied to test whether the A1166 genotypes were predictors of hypertension. RESULTS: 99% of the study population had the wild type AA genotype, and 1% was AC heterozygous carriers of the A1166C polymorphism. CONCLUSION: The A1166C polymorphism was not a predictor of hypertension in the sample population of Calabar and Uyo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are relatively limited data available on the genetic susceptibility to diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome in the Iranian population. We have therefore investigated the association between the angiotensin II type I receptor gene polymorphism (AT(1)R/A1166C) and the presence of diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome in a well defined group of patients. METHODS Patients with angiographically defined coronary artery disease (CAD) (n=309) were evaluated for the presence of AT(1)R/A1166C polymorphism. These patients were classified into subgroups with (n=164, M/F: 109/55) and without (n=145, M/F: 84/61) diabetes mellitus. The AT(1)R polymorphism was assessed using a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) based method. RESULTS There was a higher frequency of polymorphic genotypes (AC+CC) in the diabetic compared with the non-diabetic group (p=0.01). When determined for each gender separately, this difference remained significant in the males (p=0.04) but not in females (p=0.09). With regard to the allele frequencies, the C allele was significantly higher and the A allele frequency was lower in the diabetic group (p=0.01). This remained significant after gender segregation for males (p=0.01) but not females. In the binary logistic regression analysis, only serum fasting glucose was found as the independent predictor for the presence of diabetes in the CAD patients (β=1.16, p<0.001 for total population and β=1.29, p<0.001 for male subjects). There was no significant difference in genotype or allele frequencies between subgroups with and without metabolic syndrome, this being unaffected by gender or the definition of metabolic syndrome used apart from a significantly lower frequency of C allele in male subjects with metabolic syndrome defined by the NCEP ATP III criteria (p=0.04). CONCLUSION The AT(1)R/A1166C polymorphism may be associated with the presence of diabetes mellitus in male subjects with documented CAD.

Abstract
Mounting evidence suggests the potential susceptibility of individuals with a mutation in the angiotensin II type I receptor (AT1R) gene to hypertension. One polymorphism, +1166 A>C, has been extensively studied, but the results have often been irreproducible. We therefore aimed to meta-analyze all available case-control studies from the English language literature to explore the association of this polymorphism with hypertension. A total of 22 studies with 24 populations involving 8249 patients and 8225 controls were identified as of 25 February 2010. A random-effects model was performed regardless of the between-study heterogeneity. The study quality was assessed in duplicate. The data were analyzed using RevMan software (version 5.0.23). Overall, the presence of the +1166 C allele significantly conferred an increased risk of hypertension (odds ratio (OR)=1.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.00-1.30; P=0.05). Under the assumption of three genetic modes of inheritance, an elevated hypertension risk was observed for each comparison (codominant: AC vs. AA, OR=1.10 (P=0.20) and CC vs. AA, OR=1.21 (P=0.36); dominant: OR=1.13 (P=0.09); recessive: OR=1.21 (P=0.36)). Upon stratification by study design, more obvious associations were observed for the population-based design, whereas there were no changes in direction and only slight changes in magnitude upon stratification by sample size and geographical area. No publication biases were indicated by the fail-safe number. Our study pooled previous findings and showed that the AT1R +1166 C allele conferred an increased risk of hypertension. We suggest that confirmation in a large, well-designed study or from functional aspects of this polymorphism is critical.

Abstract
Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) polymorphisms have been studied as candidate risk factors for hypertension with inconsistent results, possibly due to heterogeneity among various environmental factors. We analyzed the association between RAS candidate gene polymorphisms and risk of hypertension among 2722 women and also explored whether these associations varied according to menopausal status, body mass index, and dietary factors. In a main-effects analysis of all 2722 women adjusted for age and race, homozygosity for the AT1R A1166C polymorphism was associated with hypertension (odds ratio, 1.35; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-1.78). We also found that a novel nonsense polymorphism in the aminopeptidase-A gene was associated with hypertension among postmenopausal women (hazard ratio, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.01-2.37), women with inadequate calcium intake (hazard ratio, 2.47; 95% CI, 1.29-4.72) and, marginally, women with inadequate vitamin D intake. In addition, angiotensin-converting enzyme and AT1R A1166C polymorphisms were associated or marginally associated with incident hypertension among postmenopausal women and those with inadequate calcium and vitamin D intakes. These data suggest that demographic and dietary factors may influence the associations between RAS polymorphisms and hypertension and could explain heterogeneity in prior studies.

Abstract
The angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AGTR1) plays an integral role in blood pressure control, and is implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Polymorphisms within this gene have been extensively studied in association with hypertension; however, findings are conflicting. To clarify these data, we conducted a systematic review of association studies of AGTR1 polymorphisms and hypertension, and performed a meta-analysis of the rs5186 variant. Results show that the currently available literature is too heterogeneous to draw meaningful conclusions. The definition of hypertension and gender composition of individual studies helps to explain this heterogeneity. Although the structure and splicing pattern of AGTR1 would suggest a likely effect of polymorphisms within the promoter region on gene function, few studies have been conducted thus far. In conclusion, there is insufficient evidence that polymorphisms in the AGTR1 gene are risk factors for hypertension. However, most studies are inadequately powered, and larger well-designed studies of haplotypes are warranted.

Abstract
Animal microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression through base pairing to their targets within the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of protein-coding genes. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located within such target sites can affect miRNA regulation. We mapped annotated SNPs onto a collection of experimentally supported human miRNA targets. Of the 143 experimentally supported human target sites, 9 contain 12 SNPs. We further experimentally investigated one of these target sites for hsa-miR-155, within the 3' UTR of the human AGTR1 gene that contains SNP rs5186. Using reporter silencing assays, we show that hsa-miR-155 down-regulates the expression of only the 1166A, and not the 1166C, allele of rs5186. Remarkably, the 1166C allele has been associated with hypertension in many studies. Thus, the 1166C allele may be functionally associated with hypertension by abrogating regulation by hsa-miR-155, thereby elevating AGTR1 levels. Since hsa-miR-155 is on chromosome 21, we hypothesize that the observed lower blood pressure in trisomy 21 is partially caused by the overexpression of hsa-miR-155 leading to allele-specific underexpression of AGTR1. Indeed, we have shown in fibroblasts from monozygotic twins discordant for trisomy 21 that levels of AGTR1 protein are lower in trisomy 21.

Abstract
Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) and angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2) genes have been investigated in recent years as potential etiologic candidates for cardiovascular and renal diseases. The pathogenic implications of AT1 A1166C and AT2 A-1332G gene polymorphisms have been shown. Here we describe a rapid and reliable method for detecting both AT1 and AT2 gene polymorphisms by a single-tube PCR, to reduce analysis time and simplify the genotyping procedure. In contrast to previously described methods, our method does not require hybridization, primer extension, or nested PCR for genotyping. In most previous studies concerning gene polymorphisms of RAS, both AT1 and AT2 receptor gene polymorphisms were investigated. The advantage of our method is that it makes it possible to detect both of these polymorphisms in a duplex PCR. The procedure described is convenient for routine laboratory use with manual sample processing, and offers the potential for further automation as well. Its simplicity makes it practical for large-scale screening of individuals and families at risk for cardiovascular or renal diseases.

Abstract
Hypertension is a complex multifactorial disorder with genetic, environmental and demographic factors contributing to its prevalence. The genetic element contribution to blood pressure variation ranges from 30 to 50%. Therefore, identifying hypertension susceptibility genes will help understanding the pathophysiology of the disease. In addition to the potential impact of genomic information in selecting antihypertensive drug therapy, it may also help in recognizing those at risk of developing the disease, which may lead to new preventive approaches. Several strategies and methods have been used to identify hypertension susceptibility genes. Currently, genetic analysis of such data produced complex results, which makes it difficult to draw final conclusion on the use of genomic data in management of hypertension. This review attempts to summarize present known genetic variations that may be implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension and to discuss various research strategies used to identify them. It also highlights some of the opportunities and challenges, which may be encountered in interpreting the value of these genetic variations to improve management of hypertension.

Abstract
Hypertension is a complex genetic disorder caused by interplay between several "risk" genes and environmental factors (genetic heritability approximately 30%). Most genetic studies of hypertension use a candidate gene approach and two conclusions have been made: there is no association or linkage with the genes studied, or the hypertension phenotype is heterogeneous and subgroups with hypertension related to certain polymorphisms cannot be identified because of background noise. Studies using intermediate phenotypes suggest the latter is most likely. Another problem is the reliability of gene structure assessment: usually only one or two gene polymorphisms are assessed. The use of intermediate phenotypes and dense mapping of candidate genes would provide a better approach for identifying genotype-phenotype correlations, which might enable the use of genotypes to identify more-specific therapeutic and preventative measures for hypertensives.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate whether DNA polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) genes were associated with renal scar formation in pediatric patients with bladder dysfunction (BD). Although these children are born healthy, due to persistence of immature voiding habits and evolution of BD, some develop progressive renal damage. It has been suggested that the DD genotype of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene might be an adverse renal prognostic factor. The insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the ACE gene and the A1166C polymorphism of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (ATR1) gene were identified by polymerase chain reaction amplification in 42 children with BD (aged 5-14 years) and 198 healthy adult controls. Twelve children had urgency syndrome and 30 had dysfunctional voiding. Renal scarring was found in 16 patients, while 26 patients had normal kidneys on dimercaptosuccinic acid scan. In children with renal lesions there was significant over-representation of the DD genotype compared with either controls or patients without renal damage ( P<0.05). On multivariate analysis, the DD genotype was the only factor that had a significant impact on renal scar formation, introducing a 2.51-fold risk (odds ratio 2.51, 95% confidence interval 1.04-6.04, P=0.04). The A1166C gene polymorphism was not significantly associated with the development of parenchymal damage in children with BD. Our findings introduce ACE I/D gene polymorphism as an independent risk factor for parenchymal destruction in pediatric patients with BD.

Abstract
The angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor is the primary effector for angiotensin II (Ang II), a key peptide regulator of blood pressure and fluid homeostasis. AT1 receptors are involved in the pathogenesis of several cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, and congestive heart failure, which are characterized by significant interindividual variation in disease risk, progression, and response to pharmacotherapy. Such variation could arise from genomic polymorphisms in the AT1 receptor. To pursue this notion, we have pharmacologically characterized seven known and putative nonsynonymous AT1 receptor variants. Functional analysis using the cell-based assay receptor selection and amplification technology (R-SAT) revealed that three variants (AT1-G45R, AT1-F204S, and AT1-C289W) displayed altered responses to Ang II and other AT1 receptor agonists and antagonists. Agonist responses to Ang II were absent for AT1-G45R and significantly reduced in potency for AT1-C289W (11-fold) and AT1-F204S (57-fold) compared with the wild-type (WT) receptor. AT1-F204S also displayed reduced relative efficacy (57%). Quantitatively similar results were obtained in two additional functional assays, phosphatidyl inositol hydrolysis and extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation. Radioligand binding studies revealed that AT1-G45R failed to bind Ang II, whereas cell surface staining clearly showed that it trafficked to the cell surface. AT1-C289W and AT1-F204S displayed reduced binding affinities of 3- and 5-fold and reduced cell surface expression of 43 and 60% of that observed for the WT receptor, respectively. These data demonstrate that polymorphic variation in the human AT1 receptor induces loss of functional phenotypes, which may constitute the molecular basis of variability of AT1 receptor-mediated physiological responses.
